I am looking for a one of the newer leica M 28mm 2.8 or 2.0 lenses for my M8. I was impressed with the opinions of RFF members in a previous thread regarding the Elmarit M 28 aspherical. My question is: Is the summicron 28 2.0 asph that much better to justify the significant extra cost? I have read that the summicron is sharper at the edges, a particular advantage for full frame/film. But if this is only a marginal advantage, I will likely go with the elmarit M 28 asph or a used version 4 non-asph elmarit M 28 2.8, which I read also performs quite well. I would appreciate any thoughts on this.
